AARP next target of Swift Vet patron

Post by Klast Brell »

http://nytimes.com/2005/02/21/politics/ ... &position=
Taking its cues from the success of last year's Swift boat veterans' campaign in the presidential race, a conservative lobbying organization has hired some of the same consultants to orchestrate attacks on one of President Bush's toughest opponents in the battle to overhaul Social Security.

The lobbying group, USA Next, which has poured millions of dollars into Republican policy battles, now says it plans to spend as much as $10 million on commercials and other tactics assailing AARP, the powerhouse lobby opposing the private investment accounts at the center of Mr. Bush's plan.
While this initial attack is laughably ham fisted I'm sure they will do better soon. This add lifted from the American Spectator website leads to a more professionally done website usanex.org, which accuses the AARP of "liberal Games" and “Lying to Seniors"

Pissing off the AARP is not my idea of smart politics.
